Des - I"m probably going to play both satellites this week to try and qualify, but if I fail I would like to be registered using the seat I won from the APAT Fantasy Football (Head to Head League) that I won a few weeks back.  Should I just post on here to confirm after the Sats?

Same here re 4th place in the UK Online series

Des:
I"ll let Leigh and Matt confirm that guys, but sounds fine to me.

lol

Im 100% playing the sats, and will reg the day after.


My concern is that you can reserve a seat for £5 for the Welsh Event already, however i dont really wanna pay an extra £5r so would much rather just have the holding tank for Welsh open so i can buy in for that too.

There will be no point for a Holding tank for Wales, as all the seats will be reserved for £5r a time by the time it appears.

We prefer players to qualify or buy in online. The reservation should be a last option if you need it.

Then how about not opening the reservations until after the satellites and direct buy-in have closed?

Defeats the ease of booking message Matt.  Some players just don"t want to start downloading clients and searching the forum, if there is an easy option there they will take it and if there isn"t, they are gone.  I"m not expecting this to become the defacto way that players get into the events.  Right now we"ve issued 14 seats across both events and that"s perfect as far as I can see - it"s being used as just one of several options to enter.  If it helps one or two players in the last week, then great - that"s a win, if it doesn"t, that"s fine too.

Fair points Des.

I"d suggest opening the holding tanks the same time as the reservations, but that doesn"t sound like an option if we want to try and satellite. Guess it"ll take a few events to see what the overall effect will be re panic for seats, supply and demand etc
